This volume contains a set of state-of-the-art essays by younger
philosophers on various topics in the philosophy of action. Some of
the essays are about the metaphysics of action and agency; some
consider the nature of autonomy and free agency; some explore
conceptual and normative issues, some draw on data from psychology
and psychopathology. But what all of them have in common is that
they address some problem related to our existence as human agents.
The range of topics covered is this collection is broad. This is
intentional. Rather than focus on one narrow topic in the
philosophy of action, this volume brings together papers that,
taken together, introduce readers to some key debates in
contemporary philosophy of action. Readers new to the field should
come away from the volume with a good sense of the state-of-the-art
with respect to current thinking about human action and agency. For
their part, established researchers in the field will find the
essays to be original contributions that substantially advance many
debates about action and agency.
A collection of original, state-of-the-art essays by some of the
best young philosophers working on the myriad problems of action
and agency. Each one has already made important contributions to
the philosophy of action and cognate areas. The chapters reflect
their research and make a significant contribution to some debate
in the field.
